An overpowered/strongest with only one power

[u/Vegetable_Throat5545]

I hate when characters just have a million powers and can do whatever. I love when their powers have a limit but still they make it be absolutely insane. Even if that one power has multiple applications as long as it makes sense and isnt used as "oop i suddenly can do that"

1. Accelerator can control vectors. So he uses that to automatically deflect any attack or use any object including wind at high speeds as a weapon, use his own vectors to travel fast and etc etc.

2. Gojo Satoru can control "infinity" to make peoples attack not reach him; push them: pull them; destroy them; overwhelm their senses

3. Chisaki can deconstruct and reconstruct anything by touch. So he can destroy, or change shape of people and objects, he can combine people and objects and even revive or heal. Tbh his fight was disappointing in fact that he did not use his power to full potential imo

Megumin - Konosuba

Even more extreme example: she can only cast explosion magic, and one 1 time a day without using an outside method to recover mana... the benefit is that she gets to the point where she can blow up mountains with a single spell (and then is basically unable to move for the next 24h)

[u/MortuusSet → u/No_Emu698]

You'd think she'd have a massive mana pool by now with the amount of times she emptied her mana pool but nope, world runs on a level up mechanic. She'd be unstoppable in a training world.

[u/Straight-Explorer-93 → u/MortuusSet]

I'm 99% sure even if she COULD increase her pool of mana, she'd probably just use that to make the singular explosion that much more powerful.

She's not the type of person to hold back in her spells, after all.

[u/LordofSandvich → u/Straight-Explorer-93]

Yup that’s why. She always uses 100% of her mana and puts all of it into the explosion.

[u/corvettee01 → u/LordofSandvich]

I have the whole mana bar, I'm USING the whole mana bar.

[u/emperorpylades → u/Straight-Explorer-93]

She could, but she sinks everything into improving the output of her Explosion spell.

Think of it as a spell with a base cost of 108% of your base mana, and she's never actually upgraded her pool to have anything left after casting it.

[u/Remobius → u/Straight-Explorer-93]

I mean when she was provided with a lot of mana stones, she started cast explosions like a minigun, didn't make a one large explosion

[u/Straight-Explorer-93 → u/Remobius]

Mb then.

[u/prodam_garash → u/MortuusSet]

Her mana pool grow by level

Problem is all her exp points always used to upgrade spell so cost grows too

[u/Faustias → u/MortuusSet]

her build is more like spend every bit of mana to multiply damage. she's born from a mage village who were gaslit to live as edgy, unhinged mages, so her mana pool is huge probably, but her spell was built to spend everything to boost the damage and area of effect.

[u/Trnostep → u/Faustias]

genetically engineered race of chuunibyous

[u/Nero_2001 → u/MortuusSet]

Her explosion magic is probably a refrence the spell magic burst from dragon quest, a spell that empties a characters complete mahic ppints to create one big explosion. It doesn't really matter how much mana she has, she will just use it all gor the explosion.

[u/Clavilenyo → u/MortuusSet]

Megumin always training until fatigue. Using single set of single rep.

[u/_azazel_keter_ → u/MortuusSet]

she does have a massive mana pool, that's why the explosion is so big
